Your CV is a crucial self-marketing tool. The purpose of the CV is to make a powerful first impression and secure your first interview. Some organisations have online or paper based application form as an alternative to sending in your CV. 

 

Although it is recommended a CV is no longer than 2 pages, in reality, it’s the 1^st page that is the most crucial. To be more precise, it’s the first half of the 1^st page. By this point, the recruitment agent or employer have made judgements about the type of person behind the CV.  It is essential your layout and content is well thought through and to a high standard. Furthermore, if you are applying to multiple vacancies or vacancies across a number of different jobs – it is essential you tailor your CV and therefore have multiple copies at your disposal. 

Your coaching session can be used to create a CV from scratch or fine tune one that you have already prepared.
